Contribution of Mara junior science college recitation program implementation process

This working paper is intended to evaluate the contributions of the Recitation Program process among four MARA Junior Science College students in Perak state based on the CIPP Model. The study design is a descriptive study which comprised students from three MARA Junior Science Colleges in Perak i.e. MARA Junior Science College Felda, MARA Junior Science College Pasir Salak and MARA Junior Science College Taiping. A total of 240 students were selected as study samples through convenient random sampling. Data was obtained from questionnaire forms and processed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 17. Results of multiple regression tests showed that four predictors contributed 13.3 per cent. The major predictor which contributed the most was student objectives with a contribution of 6.8 per cent, the second largest predictor was planning which contributed 3.5 per cent, while the third largest predictor that is student tasks and enrichment activities contributed 2.10 per cent and the last predictor, student strategies and recitation methods contributed 0.90 per cent. These findings revealed the possibility that there could be several other factors which affected or influenced the impact on student conduct, which was not accounted for in this study. On the whole, there are three main recommendations which look at the role of the management and administrator, the role of the teachers and students which require mutual cooperation for this program to succeed. In conclusion, a more comprehensive evaluation on implementation needs to be conducted to produce consistent results. (C) 2016 The Authors. Published by IASE.
